The Scientific Revolution to the Enlightenment: Baseball Cards Project

The Scientific Revolution to the Enlightenment: Baseball Cards Project Group Rules: ○ Divide the Philosophers/Scientists equally among your group. ○ Each person is responsible for the research on their people. ○ Only the chosen topic should be subject of any group discussion. ○ Each group will receive a group grade that indicates how well they were on task and worked together. Cards: Front: On front of the card, put the person’s name in fairly large letters. Decorate to reflect the ideas of the person. Back: Divide the back into three sections: (must have two items in each section) ○ Major Achievement/Philosophy/Idea ○ Quotes ○ Any Published Materials Each member must have all ​six​ cards in their deck, but they are to use the research from other members in their group for the information. (In other words, you research three people, your partner researches the other three. You use their notes to create baseball cards for the people they researched.) Accuracy, importance of facts chosen, and creativity will be a part of your grade. See checklist on back.
